Which Label Materials Work Best with the Afinia L502 Pigment Printer?
The Afinia L502 configured with pigment inks produces long-lasting, durable labels ideal for industrial and compliance applications. Pigment inks perform best on matte and non-gloss label stocks, especially when paired with GHS BS5609-certified media for chemical and regulated labeling.
Recommended media types for use with pigment inks:
-
Matte paper labels: dependable general-purpose industrial and product labeling
-
Matte paper tags: durable tag applications in retail or warehouse environments
-
Matte polypropylene labels: moisture-resistant product and outdoor labeling
-
GHS BS5609 certified labels: compliant chemical and hazardous material labeling
Pigment media should generally avoid glossy synthetic stocks (like glossy polypropylene or polyester) because these can interfere with ink adhesion and durability.
Choosing the right label stock for GHS and BS5609 applications is essential for performance and compliance. For help confirming the best media for your chemical, drum, or outdoor labels, call +1-866-299-0066.
